Hi, my name is Dasha!

 

For years, my world revolved around fashion—photographing campaigns, creative directing, and crafting visuals that told stories through style and detail. Over time, I found myself craving something more personal. I wanted to bring that same editorial vision into a space that felt more deeply meaningful: family.


When I moved to Seattle in 2023 I had one vision and that was to open White Moth Studio. And this is now where that fusion of fashion & family comes to life. I photograph families with the same intention, creativity, and modern aesthetic that I learned in the fashion world —only now, the stories are yours to be cherished for years to come.


I'd love to tell you more about my journey in photography and better acquaint you with the rest of our dream team, click read more below!

a family session that hits different

Visiting my studio will feel refreshing, exciting and real.

That's a promise.


Stepping in front of my lens means you are ready for an authentic photography experience. One that will never say "OK, everyone smile!" Instead, you will be gently guided and prompted to simply be yourself in flattering & authentic moments. And it's in those moments that I will capture the real you.

During your session, the kids will feel zero pressure to perform

Together we'll capture real expressions and genuine feelings.

Feelings you will be able to feel time and time again when you look at your framed keepsake heirlooms on the wall. Because editorial family photography is not about posing or being perfect, it's about connecting and being together.

Let's shoot

 

So how does it all work?

My Painless Process

 

STEP 01

 

Book

 

Booking your session is easy, simply go to our Calendar and select your preferred date and time for your chosen session! We will be in touch within 24 hours to confirm your session. Upon booking a non-refundable $250 booking deposit will be collected. Your booking will also include your contract, model release form and a quick questionnaire so we can get to know each other!

STEP 02

 

Planning

 

As an added bonus to working with a fashion photographer, you will also be able to take advantage of an optional planning session to talk about our creative direction for the session. I will create a mood board for you to plan out your outfits, poses and makeup and hair! I try to keep the movement flowing so I will always send inspirational images to gently guide you to poses and angles I would love to capture!

STEP 03

 

Session Time

 

We will meet at the studio and dive into our session by first reviewing your outfits, looking through our creative direction and letting everyone know to be themselves during the session! The photography time can take anywhere between 1 to 3 hours depending on your chosen session. (For Seniors please account for an additional 45 minutes of makeup application)

Our time together will be full of joy, laughter and fashion-forward attitude! No one session is the same so be prepared to be yourself.

STEP 04

 

Delivering photos

 

I will go through our session and curate a fully custom gallery featuring your best images! Once you’ve reviewed your images, we will schedule our wall art selection session and together we will create your custom heirloom keepsakes in person in your home so you can see your images come to life on your walls!

STEP 05

Heirloom Order

& Wrap Up

 

1-2 weeks after you have seen your final image gallery, I will schedule a Wrap Up call to talk about your experience, collect feedback and perhaps even plan for our next session!

Your custom Editorial Heirloom Keepsake order will arrive directly to your door within weeks fully matted and framed — ready for placement in your home!

editorial heirloom collections

 

Every collection is custom to you — made with love & care

Our Editorial Heirloom Collection re-imagines family keepsakes with a fresh and modern perspective.

kind words from our families

Dasha is so talented and I couldn't recommend her more highly.


She was amazing with my kids, such a great calming precense, and captured their personality in an incredibly natural way. The kids are always a little all over the place, and there's three of them, so it's not always an easy feat to get such beautiful shots of all of them (especially together.. and getting them to willingly sit together?! Not for the weak.)

It was a really smooth experience from start to finish, and we got the photos back so quickly, all of them completely gorgeous - it's going to be hard to pick which ones to frame.

She also got some gorgeous maternity photos during our session. She helped me feel really comfortable and confident and I'll treaaure those photos forever.
